Sci-Fi capture contest -- for fun ...

I'm gunna take a stab before we get any clues and say Alien. Probably not, as that would be too easy, but it sure screams ALIEN to me.

[Mikey]

Silent Running ?

[Brazoo]

Not Alien, not Silent Running.

CLUE #1: There is a great clue right in the pic - examine the details!

[megoapesnut]

Thx 1138?

[Brazoo]

It's Not THX 1138.

CLUE #2: It's newer than all the movies mentioned so far.

[Brazoo]

CLUE #3: To the right of the smiley face is the word 'LUNAR' - I guess it might be a little hard to make out.

[thunderbolt]

Man, I know I'm gonna kick myself when I hear the answer.

[mego73]

I'm going to take another stab in the dark and say The Adventures of Pluto Nash only because I know it takes place in part on the moon.

[fallensaviour]

?? It is driving me nuts I know I just saw this not long ago I remember the smiley face on the computer but am drawing an utter blank???

[Brazoo]

Man - one of you guys must be close - I KNOW it!

One more clue and I'll give the answer!

CLUE #4: This is actually a photo of a character played by Kevin Spacey, the film's only co-star.

Is it "Moon"?

Yeah, I IMDB'd it. I have never heard of this movie before this thread. Shows you how up I am on modern sci-fi movies.

[Brazoo]

YES! Nice one Phantom!

I'm such a jerk - I honestly thought this one was going to be a quick one just to keep this thread going because GERTY's smiley face is a huge part of that movie - but I kind of forgot how small Moon's release was.

I thought "Moon" and "District 9" were two of the best sci-fi movies I've seen in years.

[Brazoo]

Yeah, I IMDB'd it. I have never heard of this movie before this thread. Shows you how up I am on modern sci-fi movies.

"Moon" is definitely a throwback to a bunch of classic phycological sci-fi movies - and it pays a lot of homage to the films you guys mentioned - I think you'd probably like it!

[Brazoo]

Don't tell me I killed this tread!

AAAURRGG!

[mego73]

I'll have to dig up something
